There's a half-hour bulletin this Sunday night on ITV at 10. It's probably because of the government-forming negotiations that will probably follow the general election but there's a normal weekend-length bulletin on Saturday night at 10. If it's the case that fewer people watch the news on a Saturday evening than on a Sunday evening then why is that?


Sunday's bulletin will probably also feature extensive coverage of the VE Day commemorations as well.

Nice to see Nina included in the coverage this time. I've always said she is overlooked.

So pretty much the standard ITV News set and a bit of office space. Not exactly pushing the boat out, are they?

Liked the 'Unforgettable Election Moments' clip show. Showing lots of old election nights from the BBC and ITV and clips of old ITN news bulletins with John Suchet, Sonia Ruseler and Anne Leuchars.

Nice big wide-shot of the General Election Studio just now. I assumed it was in the same studio as the ITV News and ITV News London, however Mary said they were practising right now so it must be in another studio?

An attempt at recreating the atrium kind of look behind Julie there.

Here's my theory: they have brought some new desks and put them in another studio, then will give these two to ITV Local News' teams across the country!

It'd explain why ITV News London has been very restricted with their camera angles in the last week or so.

That studio is populated by vampires - nobody has a reflection!

The "opinion room" is actually the ITV (yes ITV) staff cafe area on the 3rd floor in GIR. They've even kept those weird purpley-green chairs...
